Conspiracy Of Equals release New CD on Leo Records. Four massive mountain men of music meet on a full moon and pour their hearts out in spontaneous soundscapes of fierce emotion. They groove harder than a very hard thing but free music also speaks freely here, and the mountain men are never afraid to speak of the strange properties of love. Recorded live direct to 2-Track DAT, it careers wildly between the funky, bluesy, and downright groovy to the madly swinging and chilled out mountain top vibe.

HARRY FULCHER, leader of the acclaimed Limbic System, was a founding member of the London Musicians Collective. He plays avant garde, jazz and rock music, playing with the Levellers, Alex Maguire, the Totnes Jazz Collective and anyone with attitude. His album, The Limbic System, was voted by the editor of Jazz Views as one of the ten best albums of 2004 worldwide.

MARCO ANDERSONis a musician, composer and producer and MD of Foxy Productions record label, currently residing in Bristol, UK. He is the leader of the powerful Bird Architects and also contributor for AAJ.

AARON STANDON is an alto saxophonist and guitarist who has worked alongside Derek Bailey and Lol Coxhill, and his collaboration with flautist John Eaves resulted in the album Playing for Time.

Aaron was a founder member of the unpredictable funk/punk/jazz band the Bird Architects in the 1980s. This was a group that attracted near cult status and indeed critical acclaim in Bristol and beyond as a powerhouse of rhythm, outlandish original compositions and extraordinary feats of improvisation.
